In order to do DX type FM you need the ability to linearly frequency
modulate a VCO through zero. While the MOTM-300 is capable of linear
FM, it does not have through zero capability.
I'm unsure whether or not you need oscillators which reset to zero on
the leading edge of a gate. This may not be necessary, but I assume the
DX series does reset to zero.
Even if the MOTM oscillator was capable of meeting the above criteria,
you would need a very large system to replicate the DX7. Six VCOs, Six
VCAs, Six Envelope Generators at the minimum.
Personally, I would welcome a new MOTM VCO with these capabilities, but
I haven't heard anyone else except Dave Bradley express the same
sentiments.

Hi
I´m still a bit new to MOTM and dont have any MOTM VCO´s yet. (using
my old Korg Mono/Poly as main VCO´s) Can you do FM in the "Yamaha DX7
way", with it? (feeding/modulating it with its own or another VCO´s
output) Or is this only possible in a virtual digital domaine?
greetings
Gregory
